The Cave nebula in Cepheus – blast from the pastPosted by Greg Parker in Hyperstar and SXV-H9C
Another deep-sky image from the NFO archives, and another original Hyperstar/H9C composition. This time the Cave nebula in Cepheus. I recall the tracking was so good on this one that I actually got some vertical banding where the tracking error was well within 1-pixel for the whole imaging session. Not sure why it was quite so good that time, something to do with where I was imaging in the sky as well as several other things all working together with me for a change, but I never managed to repeat the precision tracking with this system afterwards
Another old image from the New Forest Observatory taken with the original Hyperstar and a little SXV H9C one-shot colour camera (1.4 megapixels only!). The camera was highly sensitive and I regret selling it when I bought the APS-sized chip M25C. This image of M78 was taken using just two hours of total imaging time showing the enormous speed (f#1.85) of the original Hyperstar. |
